      <description><![CDATA[I can't wait to win the next millionaire raffle. $750,000 is plenty for me, and at 5% interest that is about $37,500 a year, which I can turn into millions over several years by living modestly enough. It will all add up fast, and before you know it I will be getting about $100,000 a year in interest. It IS a lot of money if you know how to invest it.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I understand your comment, spy.  I would love to get a check for $750,000.  However, keep in mind that they deduct 25% automatically when a person wins, but if he doesn't have a lot of deductions, he will end up paying much more in federal income tax.  With young children, I think he means it's not enough to retire and take care of his family.  (That's why it's so hard to interpret what someone really means from a newspaper article.)<br /><br />Congrat to the winner!   It's a good thing he didn't wai...

      <description><![CDATA[Nice little nest egg.  WTG!!!!!<br /><br />The Checchins agree on one point - they aren't ready to turn in their two-week notices just yet, even on the estimated $750,000 they'll get after taxes.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[well, it's not retirement money, but saying it isn't much is just wrong.  But look who I'm talking about, he didn't even check his ticket for weeks. I was hanging on the edge of my seat until the draw in May. The very thought of winning made my hands sweat.  And this joker wins]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Tennessee man carried winning raffle ticket in his wallet<br /><br />It was a little surreal.<br /><br />That was the reaction Kathy Checchin of Murfreesboro had when her husband, Rick, called to tell her they were million-dollar winners in the Tennessee Lottery.<br /><br />(Winning numbers: http://www.lotterypost.com/tn-lottery-raffle-2007-05-14.asp)<br /><br />Her husband won the money May 14 in the Million $ Madness drawing.
